Ochún, goddess of rivers so bright,
Bring us your power, your love, and your light.
Bless the waters, the earth, and the sky,
Dance, Ochún, as the sun rises high.
Golden waters of Osun-Osogbo flow
Her laughter ripples, caimitos grow
Five copper bracelets jingle in time
Batá drums carry through Havana’s clime
Sunflowers bloom as she moves with grace
Spreading love and beauty in every place
Ochún, Ochún, dance on the waves
With golden waters, she lights the day
Queen of the river, love’s sweet embrace
We feel her spirit, in every place
Baila, Ochún, baila, corazón
Her love’s a blessing, like the morning sun
Let the waters heal, bless all of our plans
Orula’s favorite, smile on this place
When the moon rises on Saturday night
Her whispers are heard where the fireflies light
Gather the honey, bring pumpkins so sweet
Feel the warmth of love, where five rivers meet
Ochún, Ochún, dance on the waves
With golden waters, she lights the day
Queen of the river, love’s sweet embrace
We feel her spirit, in every place
Baila, Ochún, baila, corazón
Her love’s a blessing, like the morning sun
In Regla de Ocha, she holds sacred power,
Guiding lost souls in their darkest hour.
Bathed in her river, we wash away pain,
Ochún’s embrace brings hope after rain.
Golden peacock feathers fall in the stream,
She guides us softly, like a sacred dream.⬤
Ochún, Ochún, dance on the waves
With golden waters, she lights the day
Queen of the river, love’s sweet embrace
We feel her spirit, in every place
Baila, Ochún, baila, corazón
Her love’s a blessing, like the morning sun
Yeye Ochún, with love so pure,
Bless the waters, let our spirits endure.
Dancing in the river, our hearts align,
Under Ochún’s gaze, all is divine.
